Step 1
Have a terrible kitchen. If your kitchen is already beautiful, your odds of being picked for a kitchen makeover based on need are low. You'd still have equal odds of entering a contest based on chance alone, though.
-
Step 2
Take digital photographs of your kitchen at its worst. Make sure your kitchen is clean when you take the photos---you won't be receiving a makeover for a kitchen; instead, you'll be much more likely to receive a makeover based on the "worst" qualities of the kitchen design and layout. You'll probably need some photos of you and your partner, if you have one, as well.

Step 3
Fill out applications for kitchen makeover shows that air on major network or cable networks (see Resources). Don't forget to include your digital photos, which are a required part of the applications.
-
Step 4
Keep your web browser tuned to "Casting Call" web pages for prominent kitchen slows such as Kitchen Renovations from the DIY Network. Check back at least once a month---even if the shows aren't taking casting the first time you check, they'll be bound to take casting at least once a year.
-
Step 5
Enter sweepstakes like the SubZero Dream Kitchen sweepstakes, which repeats every year.
-
Step 6
Be patient. It takes time for your audition application to work its way through the review process. There are literally tens of thousands of people applying for a very few open positions. Keep applying to other sweepstakes and makeover shows until you win one.
